AR Diamante Beach Spa & Convention Center

This is a brilliant place to stay, on arrival we were greeted at reception by very happy efficient chap. First impression of the hotel is the large very clean and tidy reception area nicely furnished with easy chairs. And a bar leading to the swimming pool. We booked a standard room which was very nice and spacious with a small desk, a chair and plenty of wardrobe space, and the bed was comfortable. An on suite bath shower room was a little compact but very nice. Breakfast, There was a good choice of food cold and hot. cereals, a selection fresh fruit, yogurts, selection of cold meats , mixed pastries, hot food selection and a choice of hot and cold drinks. Plus more. Our first impression stayed with us all round the hotel very clean and tidy with very helpful staff. Parking There is very very good private parking under the hotel. Just a small thing maybe the hotel would consider installing a Tesla EV destination charger.. If your looking at Calpe for a holiday the A R Diamanté is a great place to stay A little about things around the hotel Local restaurants Just a few minutes walk from the hotel in the side streets and along the beach front there is a great choice of restaurants and bars.. Beach There is Lovely sandy beach for the family with a children’s play platform. Show less

This was my second stay at the Diamente Beach Hotel (2013 & 2015). The hotel is efficiently run and clean, there is a good variety of food at breakfast and dinner, tables are cleared quickly, there is maid service every day, the receptionists were helpful in printing out train/bus timetables and a maintenance issue was dealt with quickly. The clientele were mostly families; Spanish, French, German and some British. There are some daytime activities, a kids' club and evening entertainment - some good and some not so good! There are two large supermarkets nearby, a bus stop and 'tourist train' which runs into the old town. The hotel is situated in an area with other hotels and apartment blocks in a residential part of Calpe. It's a good half hour walk (if you go diagonally from the hotel) or longer along the promenade into Calpe old town. The salinas natural park is within walking distance. The area felt very safe. It's more of a family resort with a sandy beach, small amount of bars close to the hotel, restaurants a little further and a marina. There are sea views from the hotel's higher floors, although the view is in between apartment blocks. We had a great view from a corner 9th floor room of the Ifach rock, sea, salinas and outskirts of Calpe.

Great place! Nice for families (pool area, good buffet, nice beach 5 min walk, nighttime show). The only drawback is that the beds are very hard. Besides that, recommended!
